Ogguiri Elu, Keneno, and Afra
These Esus are from the Arara of Dahomey (present day Ghana). The only one we know anything about is Afra, who is a good friend of Agronica (Babalu-Aye), and are always working together.

Eleggua Afra: From the land of the Arara. He is the Elegba of Babalu Aye. His eleke (beads) are black and white.

Eshu Afra: Supposed to be from Fon/Ewe origin. This Dahomeyan Eshu is close to Babalu Aye, who also is a Dahomeyan deity. Don’t give him rum or he’ll become nasty, and believe me: a nasty Eshu is something you don’t want to have around! He is the “whistling Eshu”, fond of standing in corners and in lonely places.
